Watch Out for Fluoride Damage in New Colgate Products

Fluoride is a known poison.  
It has been scientifically proven that amounts of fluoride under 1 PPM is toxic to humans, and poisonous especially to children and pets.

Can you wonder what damage Colgate can do with their new "Pro Clinical line: Renewal" product?

One fluoride research colleague tells me that if FDA and Health Canada were actually doing their job, these products would never get to market.

"Colgate is stepping up their game.

Known as a go-to brand for your average daily toothpaste, Colgate has now partnered with research scientists and dentists to launch a professional range of products that are available at the drugstore.

The new Pro Clinical line includes whitening, cleaning and renewal toothpastes that take their technology from a trip to the dentist's chair for a cleaning.

The Daily Whitening toothpaste is formulated with ProLuminex silica crystals that remove and prevent stains with exfoliation-like action. Meanwhile, Daily Cleaning contains Prophy-Silica buffers that are similar to what the dentist uses when your teeth are polished during a cleaning, while Daily Renewal is fortified with 1500 ppm of fluoride -- the highest amount allowed without a prescription -- to strengthen and solidify enamel, as well as protect teeth from corrosive food acids that cause decay.

Colgate claims that study participants saw results in as little as three weeks, with full results shown after six weeks of regular twice-daily brushing. We've used it for a week, and are already loving the results."

Fluoride erodes teeth and gums while promoting cavities.

Solid Nutrition prevents cavities along with cleaning your teeth, simply.  Soap and water can do a fine job!

Thermography 90, Mammogram 50

A great boost for the benefits of thermography over breast-cancer-causing mammogram.  It is more effective and better for women under 50.

Yes!  Thermography's accuracy rate is 90% versus mammogram's 50%.

It is well past time the ensconced ACS wakes up to newer, better, and safer screening for breast cancer.

Big Insurance needs to wake up as well!

Scan that spots breast cancer like a heat seeking missile

A technology originally developed by the U.S. military for night vision could soon help young women cut their risk of developing breast cancer.

A study due to be published on Wednesday found that this technology - used in medical scanning - vastly improved the chances of spotting early signs of a tumour in women under the age of 50.

The breast tissue of younger women tends to be denser, which makes conventional mammogram scans less reliable.

Dense breast increases cancer risk

Published: May 21, 2010 at 1:04 AM

ROCHESTER, N.Y., May 21 (UPI) -- Seventy-four percent of U.S. woman say they have had a mammogram, while 66 percent say they get mammograms on a regular basis, a survey indicates.
However, the national poll by Harris Interactive of 599 adult women age 40 and older, conducted April 28 to 30, indicates 95 percent of women age 40 and older do not know their breast density and nearly 90 percent do not know denser breast increases the risk of breast cancer.
Nancy M. Cappello, founder of Are You Dense, a non-profit organization dedicated to informing the public about dense breast tissue, says the survey indicates 9 percent of doctors discuss breast density with women.
"Prior to finding out I had advanced breast cancer, I had annual mammograms, I ate healthy and exercised and didn't have a first-degree relative with breast cancer. But I didn't have all the information I needed," Cappello says in a statement. "What I didn't know was that I have dense breast tissue and like two-thirds of pre-menopausal women and one quarter of post-menopausal women, I have a much lower chance of having breast cancer detected by a mammogram."
However, Dr. Rachel Brem of George Washington University Medical Faculty Associates in Washington says although ultrasound is a proven tool in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer, it has not typically been used for screening.
"Several studies have shown that for women with dense breast tissue, supplementing mammograms with ultrasound can increase detection from 48 percent to 97 percent."

Older Adults Need More Vitamin D

Not only do older people require more vitamin D, but so do people of color, people who do not go in the sun, those wearing clothing that fully covers the body from head to toe, but those dealing with obesity (this group may need up to 5x greater doses).

Older adults suffering vitamin D deficiency need higher remedial doses than younger adults, according to a new research review.

The study, Correcting poor vitamin D status: Do older adults need higher repletion doses of vitamin D3 than younger adults?, concluded that: “The doses and total time for repleting older adults with vitamin D3 appeared to be greater than for younger adults, in part due to the lower starting baseline vitamin D status.”

Oral supplementation

To ensure almost all patients receive sufficient vitamin D, a daily dose of 125 mcg (5000 IU) is required for older people, aged 65 and above, while for younger patients, below the age of 65, a rate above 50 mcg (2000 IU) was sufficient.

The results applied whether Vitamin D was taken daily or as a bolus oral supplementation. Adults classed as deficient were those with levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D less than 75 nmol/L.

The researchers further concluded that several regimens, such as loading with a high dose (12500 mcg) of vitamin D3 and then giving 1250 mcg monthly, provide enough vitamin D3 for most patients to achieve and maintain 25(OH)D levels at or above 75 nmol/L.

According to the research review, a promising loading regimen is to provide calcidiol (25(OH)D) itself.

Since information on repletion with vitamin D2 has been published recently, the researchers decided to focus on the use of vitamin D3 from dietary supplements, prescriptions for large oral doses, and bolus dosing or injections.

Most published dosing regimens failed to achieve 75 nmol/L in almost all subjects, whether young adults (below 65 years) or older adults (above 65 years).

The authors, Susan Whiting, College of Pharmacy and Nutrition, University of Saskatchewan, Canada, and Mona Calvo, US Food and Drug Administration, noted many differences among studies, including baseline levels, endpoints, study duration, and compliance.

Adverse effects

All the studies reviewed reported that subjects were free of adverse effects, indicating that the vitamin D3 protocols were safe during the observed dosing periods.

Meanwhile, the researchers noted that: “Vitamin D insufficiency and deficiency is at epidemic proportions worldwide. In temperate countries more than half of the population is at risk and worldwide, even in tropical countries, vitamin D deficiency is a very serious concern due to changes in living and working conditions.”

Vitamin D has been shown convincingly to have many functions beyond its role in calcium and bone health, they added.

In addition to maintaining normal blood levels of calcium and phosphorus, Vitamin D aids in the absorption of calcium, helping to form and maintain strong bones. Recently, research also suggests vitamin D may provide protection from osteoporosis, hypertension, cancer, and several autoimmune diseases.

Splenda, Sucralose: What it Does

Just to remind everyone that thinks using this product is good.  And if you are watching A1C you might want to avoid it all together.


Studies have shown that sucralose can:

* Cause the thymus to shrink by as much as 40% (the thymus is your immune powerhouse - it produces T cells)
* Cause enlargement of the liver and kidneys
* Reduce growth rate as much as 20%
* Cause enlargement of the large bowel area
* Reduce the amount of good bacteria in the intestines by 50%
* Increase the pH level in the intestines (a risk factor for colon cancer)
* Contribute to weight gain
* Cause aborted pregnancy low fetal body weight
* Reduce red blood cell count

Particular warning to diabetics:  Researchers found that diabetic patients using sucralose showed a statistically significant increase in glycosylated hemoglobin, a marker that is used to assess glycemic control in diabetic patients. According to the FDA, "increases in glycosolation in hemoglobin imply lessening of control of diabetes."

Phone Folly

It never ceases to amaze me that so-called experts that get interview time on network or cable TV are so out of touch with the most current  data and research.

Take the comments of  Dr Otis Brawley,  chief medical Officer at the American Cancer Society, on a recent edition of Larry King.
 
Dr. Brawley, an oncologist and obviously someone with a vested interest in maintaining the status quo, would have you believe that using Blue Tooth or a wired cell phone head set is safe.

I hate to alert Dr. Brawley to the facts of Blue Tooth use, but it has been associated with hearing loss as well as the development of neuromas on the side of the head most frequently used. 

He must also have missed Dr Geroge Carlo's seminal studies completed over a decade ago that indicates the risks of using wired head sets.

Current EMF warnings urge cell phone users to use the speaker phone function on the phone and to keep it at the farthest distance possible, or to text rather than talk.

Air tube head sets are recommended over wired, but may have some concern, and using an EMF guard is advised.

But then, the cancer industry might be reduced in size and expense if we looked to other real experts in the field.

So, Larry, when can we get some people who know the facts to be interviewed on your show?
